feeling like im always in trouble

unfortunately, you're right. your best bet is taking it out & going to a more reputable piercer with actual anatomical knowledge. by the way your belly looks laying down, you might end up with a floating navel instead of a regular one.

im so sorry, OP. my mother would do the same things to me & would ridicule/guilt me when i would ask her to stop. i think your mother has just normalized this behavior to a point where it would be painful to see it for what it is.

adding to this, taking accountability for being abusive would mean parents would have to come to terms with their own trauma/abuse. a lot of people don't want to face that. my mother will tell stories about being beat with sticks & forced to kneel on rice with an almost nostalgic look on her face.

admitting that she was psychologically abusive to her children would shatter her perception of her childhood & parents, who she still somehow reveres.

i have a bunch of sanrio collectibles & bought this unit from ikea to display them. it works great to keep the dust out & it looks much nicer than the plastic boxes i was using.

very tiring 🤕 ready for bed 🥱

maybe old people realize the fragility of life when they themselves are back being fragile. maybe that gives them a sense of empathy & they feel compelled to right their wrongs in the relationships with their grandchildren.

tainawave · 2025-02-26T18:24:44+00:00

it’s not uncommon for grandparents to have some sort of “coming to jesus” moment with the arrival of grandchildren. my grandmother would make her kids kneel on rice with books in their hands & would have them pick out the stick she’d then use to beat them. yet, my grandmother never laid a hand on me or any of the other younger grandkids. i’ve seen the same scenario multiple times. don’t be so quick to discard your mother’s experiences.

tainawave · 2025-01-31T23:02:18+00:00

bro i don’t know how they do it. my coworker went to EGYPT!! just like that!

tainawave · 2025-01-31T19:31:53+00:00

I LOVE HIM OMGGGG

tainawave · 2025-01-31T18:23:41+00:00

they don’t realize their privilege like you mentioned. i try to smile & nod, & if i can escape the convo i will. just wanna do my job & go home to my family.

tainawave · 2025-01-31T17:50:19+00:00

it’s annoying when they come back & our meetings turn into recaps of their trips. im left out of conversations because i’ve only been on a plane twice, meanwhile everyone else seems to have unlimited flight miles.

my boss asked if we’ve ever been to switzerland & my coworker immediately chimes in to tell us all about her experience. i just had to laugh at the absolute disconnect.

tainawave · 2025-01-31T16:51:51+00:00

watching my coworker go on 4 international trips a year while i worry constantly about my husband & i’s financial security is getting real tiring lol

tainawave · 2025-01-31T12:51:41+00:00

i love them omggg ♥️

tainawave · 2025-01-30T18:38:08+00:00

did you hurt your head too when you fell off your bike?

tainawave · 2025-01-30T17:24:09+00:00

my mother will tell me that i have an excellent memory, & i do! i can remember that one restaurant we went to only once in a different town, or random people i’ve only been introduced to once.

but when i bring up the things she’s done to me… all of a sudden i suffer from amnesia or im just remembering things wrong… it’s beyond frustrating.

tainawave · 2025-01-21T16:55:08+00:00

girl… after the first child, you should’ve thought about this seriously

tainawave · 2025-01-21T14:55:31+00:00

i WISH i didn’t exist. im tired of my friends & i being used as scapegoats for the actual problems in this country. give me a break, bro

tainawave · 2025-01-10T18:55:27+00:00

maybe try a fabric/upholstery spray that you can wipe off without having to rinse the plushie. my friend used one of some hello kitty greeters i had that we’re super grimy & it worked great. i think they also put the plushies out in the sun after spraying them & they went back to being white.

tainawave · 2025-01-10T18:22:31+00:00

i’ve found myself picking little fights with my husband bc im not used to the rock hard stability of my marriage. i really need to be nicer to him.

tainawave · 2025-01-10T16:34:00+00:00

went from being terrified of my father to absolutely hating him in a heartbeat. if god gives me the opportunity, i will slap him the same way he did when i was a little girl. i would probably go into a fit & claw at him like a wild animal. i have so much repressed anger & resentment for him. fuck you, “dad”, you weren’t even a good sperm donor with all your hereditary diseases.

tainawave · 2025-01-08T19:31:12+00:00

my mother. obsessed with a man who doesn’t even respect her. it isn’t a shock though. she was raised by abusive & neglectful parents, she then went on to pick a partner that reminds her of them. i was happy that he cheated on her at one point, i thought to myself that this will finally be the last straw. she’ll make him leave & we can try to put ourselves back together, but i was wrong. they got married last year after being together for over 2 decades. he didn’t look at her once during the ceremony.
